Product Introduction

PEG-7 Hydrogenated Castor Oil is a non-ionic surfactant with excellent emulsifying properties. It is derived from hydrogenated castor oil and ethoxylation, making it a versatile ingredient in various cosmetic formulations. Its unique structure allows it to provide effective oil-water emulsification, enhancing product stability and performance. This ingredient is commonly found in creams, lotions, and serums due to its ability to condition and hydrate the skin.

Production Process

The production of PEG-7 Hydrogenated Castor Oil involves two main processes: hydrogenation and ethoxylation. Initially, the castor oil is hydrogenated to remove unsaturation, creating a more stable oil. Following this, ethylene oxide is added to the hydrogenated castor oil in a controlled reaction, producing a polyethylene glycol derivative. The resulting product is a clear liquid that maintains the beneficial properties of castor oil while enhancing its solubility and compatibility with other ingredients.

Efficacy and Function

PEG-7 Hydrogenated Castor Oil functions primarily as an emulsifier and skin conditioning agent. It helps to blend oil and water together effectively, which is crucial in creating stable emulsions in cosmetic formulations. Additionally, it offers conditioning properties, helping to improve skin feel and moisture retention. This ingredient is valued for its ability to enhance the texture of products, making them smoother and more pleasant to use.

Application Scenarios

PEG-7 Hydrogenated Castor Oil is widely used in various cosmetic products, including lotions, creams, and makeup products. It is particularly effective in formulations that require a stable emulsification system, as it ensures that oil and water components remain mixed and do not separate over time. Furthermore, its moisturizing properties make it suitable for skincare and hair care products aimed at providing hydration and improving overall appearance.
